2 Great Tours In Two Great Countries – Costa Rica And Guatemala
This is a selection of six of my favorite hotels in Costa Rica and a small description of them, Enjoy!
Korrigan Lodge in Puerto Viejo
This is a great option for peace & nature lovers in Costa Rica’s Caribbean region. Korrigan Lodge consists of a number of bungalows nicely placed in the middle of the Costa Rican jungle.
It is also a few steps away from the beach. The bungalows are private with a beautiful tropical decoration. In the morning you will be woken up by howler monkeys and birds. Then get ready for the Breakfast, because it’s not only filling but also very tasty.
Turtle Beach Lodge, Tortuguero
Turtle Beach Lodge is the best option if you are planning on visiting the beautiful Tortuguero Village or Tortuguero National Park on your Costa Rican Vacation. My experience with them tells me that it is perfect for families. The service is outstanding. They are so helpful and nice but at the same time they don’t intrude with you and your relaxation at all. The food is very tasty unlike many other hotels’ food.

The food is very tasty unlike many other hotels’ food. We got the opportunity to see many exotic animals running around freely in the surroundings so I guess it would also be great for nature lovers.
Villas Tranquilas, Manuel Antonio
Villas Tranquilas is located in Manuel Antonio’s rain forest, Costa Rica, just a few minutes from Manuel Antonio National Park and beach.
A great incentive for me to stay in these villas is the fact that they had minimal impact on the environment while being built. In addition the owners have also helped rebuild the local community school in the nearby town of Quepos.
Estela de Fuego Hotel in Playa Flamingo
Estela de Fuego is a beautiful hotel just minutes away from the beach on foot nested over a hill. A hill you said? Yes, the hotel is nested on a hillside from Playa Flamingo in Guanacaste, Costa Rica.
This hotel is pretty popular with honeymooners and couples. The hotel offers 45 rooms all with hot water. There is also a wet bar, a swimming pool, a bar and a restaurant.
The Hideaway Hotel in Samara Beach
The Hideaway Hotel is a small intimate, bed & breakfast located in Samara Beach, Costa Rica.
You will find it in the middle of the forest and just a minute away from the beach. The hotel offers 12 suites which are beautifully decorated. The colors they used in the decoration give the illusion of a big open space (I’m not saying that the rooms are small).
Oxygen Jungle Villas a Boutique Hotel in Uvita
It is located on a private reserve, in the middle of primary jungle of Uvita, par of the Costa Rican Central Pacific Region. The hotel only has 6 villas which means there will never be more than 12 guests due to their couples only policy. This is one of Costa Rica’s best options for honeymoons.
Every villa has a king size bed and a great view because of its hillside location. Since the place is run by the owners you get a more personalized service. The whole place is surrounded by the forest. It’s an amazing place to visit and one of the best hotels in the area.
